Was the aft torpedo tubes filled with beer per chance?

HMCS Ojibwa.

Thought they would have learned from Chernobyl not to play/test too much with pressure storage tanks attached to truly shitty equipment. Rename all the subs to HMCS Chretien in honour of the man who made such a wise purchase.

Muscles are only strong if you use them. We have a small navy trying to use hand me downs from the big navies without the ports or manpower to sustain them properly. Till that changes we could buy top of the line boats and still have the same problems.
